I am your Pseudonym by Tallest-Marij on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

New OC I got as an adopt from Zerna!

She said she was inspired by all the Announcer OC’s out there and wanted to make one too, though not with the usual pink outfit, so she came up with this. The thought was that they are the Announcer for nightlife stuff: dance clubs, night fights, and so on, instead of like the actual canon Announcer seen in ‘The Nightmare Begins’ and “Frycook What Came From All that Space’.

I liked that thought and it was the vibes I’d gotten from Zerna’s pic.

So, for my OC, it’s actually a little more complicated than that. It’s what Tallest Marij did before they became Tallest (and frequently continue secretly doing on the side, because Ember’s not the only one who wanted to continue their previous job, LOL!). So… it’s my ‘sona, but in actual OC form, whom I can insert as a side in actual stories and stuff as I please, LOL! I’ll probably mainly write them prior to being Tallest, though, because they’d have to either have reigned before Miyuki or after Ember (as per my story timeline).

They have always used a pseudonym and it’s the very clever pseudonym, Pseudonym, LOL! Or Pseu (yes… Sue) for short - toyed with Nym, but I’m positive I’ve seen at least two other Irken OC’s name ‘Nym’, and I just kinda like ‘Pseu’. And you can’t tell me ‘Pseudonym’ isn’t a perfectly normal Irken name. 🤣

I did change a couple small things from the original design: added headphones (I just love how that looks in the silhouette), though tried to make them slightly different from the standard announcer headphones; and I made the ‘eye’ bicoloured to reflect Marij’s heterochromia. Oh, and the fingertips to match the shoes. Oh, and heel - though it wasn’t an intentional change… I just legit forgot Zerna hadn’t made the heals yellow, so that’s what happened there and I may actually keep it because I like it.

Oh! And the ‘spikes’ on the boots… I legit forgot those so I might actually add them later.

EDIT: Just added them… and dialogue, now that I thought of something for them to say, LOL! (Hope that doesn’t annoy anyone.)

Art and character belong to me.

P.S: if anyone’s curious, I drew this to the song “I’m Good (Blue)” by David Guetta & Bebe Rexha ((Yes, I had it on loop, fire me, LOL! Mainly because I got frustrated with the rest of the playlist.. I picked out a dance playlist on Spotify and the vast majority of songs on it were not my idea of dance music Like, how are you supposed to dance when there’s basically no beat?? I have no idea. But, anyway, I wasn’t in the mood for a 80’s/90’s playlist. I probably should’ve gone for techno/trance, but I didn’t think of it))
